NEW YORK, Aug. 29, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- CamScanner, a leading mobile scanning application, today announced the launch of its new "Turn Page to Auto Capture" feature, an innovative tool designed to streamline the process of digitizing multi-page documents like books, contracts, and notebooks. This groundbreaking function is the first of its kind in the industry.
The Turn Page to Auto Capture feature allows users to digitize entire books or multi-page documents with just a few simple steps. By opening the app, tapping the camera button, selecting "Book mode," and activating "Turn Page to Auto Capture," scanning becomes both effortless and efficient. After the first page is captured manually, users only need to turn the pages while the app automatically detects and records each one.(https://www.youtube.com/shorts/S-k5Xo-Kch8）This eliminates the need to tap the capture button repeatedly, making the process faster and smoother—whether scanning 10 pages or 100.
This feature is powered by an advanced deep learning algorithm that performs real-time analysis of the viewfinder content to recognize subtle cues such as hand movements, changes in lighting, shadows, and the book's colors. Once the algorithm detects a page turn, the system waits for the page to settle, ensuring a crisp image capture. This approach effectively prevents common issues like blurry shots, duplicate pages, and accidental obstructions. This feature is currently available on iOS.
A key technical challenge was determining the perfect moment to automatically capture the image after a page is turned. The app must not snap a picture immediately; instead, it needs to consider factors such as the stability of the book, whether fingers are obscuring the text, and changes in clarity. To address this, CamScanner developed a smart decision-making algorithm that only takes a picture once the page is stable, unobstructed, and clear. The logic is designed to trigger only when a page-turning action is detected, preventing duplicate shots when the document is stationary.
The result is a high-quality PDF document created with minimal user effort. The technology behind the feature breaks down the task into three main components: detecting the page turn, automatically capturing the page after detection, and then processing the captured page using CamScanner's book mode to remove imperfections and create a high-quality PDF. The integration of these components allows for a seamless and efficient scanning experience.
With the Turn Page to Auto Capture feature, CamScanner reaffirms its commitment to providing users with powerful, intuitive tools for digitizing and managing their documents.

The Initiative Aims to Address the Pain Points of Family Filmmaking
BEIJING, Dec. 13, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- On December 6th, the 3rd FamilyLens International Film Festival opened in Beijing. SmallRig, a global specialized provider of imaging solutions, collaborating with FamilyLens, is empowering family filmmaking through various initiatives, including the Family Filmmaking Co-Creation Initiative, a dedicated family filmmaking kit, and a social impact screening program.
Deepening the "Co-Creation Initiatives"
The Co-Creation Initiatives are a series of global creative initiatives open to filmmakers and image creators worldwide. Through deep collaboration across multiple dimensions — including product co-creation, discovery and promotion, and content co-creation — SmallRig aims to expand the boundaries of mobile filmmaking and bring the spirit of Free Your Dream to life with creators everywhere.
Following the launch of the Mobile Filmmaking Co-Creation Initiative at the 14th International Smartphone Film Festival, SmallRig announced the launch of the Family Filmmaking Co-Creation Initiative on December 6th at the 3rd FamilyLens International Film Festival. The initiative invites global creators and every family to participate, focusing on three core directions: product co-creation, work promotion, and content co-creation, to explore the possibilities of family filmmaking for everyone.
Mr. Zhou Yang, Founder and CEO of SmallRig, shared the inspiration for the initiative: "The initiative is rooted in the immense universality and profound emotional depth inherent in family narratives, which serve as a common emotional bond connecting global audiences. We firmly believe that in this era, where everyone can be a content creator, every family can and should film their own story. The instinct to create is deeply embedded in the human spirit, and every home is the origin of countless narratives."
Gu Xue, Founder and Director of the FamilyLens International Film Festival, stated: "We hope that people and practitioners around the world who care about family movies can find suitable solutions and gain insights from the Co-Creation Initiatives. We look forward to more and more people exploring the field of 'Home' together through this initiative."
To address the pain points of family filmmaking, SmallRig officially released the SmallRig Family Filmmaking Kit at the opening ceremony. The kit includes a high-quality microphone, fill light, and a portable tripod, specifically designed to achieve "professional function democratization" and "complex feature simplification." During the FamilyLens Workshop, attendees experienced the convenience of the equipment firsthand. Many expressed that the kit truly solves many problems, enabling ordinary families to complete necessary filming without specialized photography knowledge.
Social Impact Screening Program
The 3rd FamilyLens International Film Festival is open to the public from December 6th to 14th. The festival opened with the screening of well-received documentary: K-Family Affairs. In addition to the competition section, the festival features several distinctive sections, including the Reframing Home Movies— An Italian Retrospective, Youth Film Program, Filmmaker in Focus, and the Social Impact Program. Four major awards, such as the Real-Life Portrait Award and the Artistic Exploration Award, will also be presented.
As a key component of the Co-Creation Initiatives, the SmallRig Image Development Fund partnered with the FamilyLens International Film Festival to curate the "Social Impact Screening Program." This unit focuses on elevating awareness of critical issues within the family unit, advocating for a new reflection: "Starting with Seeing, Concluding with Understanding."
Arum Nam, Director of K-Family Affairs, stated:
"Starting with the stories of your family, your friends, and yourself, I believe this personal narrative can connect directly to the bigger society."
SmallRig believes that truly meaningful social impact storytelling stems from awareness in proximity—achieved by using the lens to penetrate the daily surface and enabling a deep, empathetic "Seeing with Empathy."
The four featured works in this unit are:
- People of the Ascent
- Granny's Lost and Found
- Ruixi at Fourteen
- No Country For My Maternal Grandma
These films highlight four family issues that require "seeing": the yearning of left-behind children, the mental isolation of Alzheimer's patients, the elderly searching for subjectivity in their drifting lives, and the emotional volatility and struggle of Bipolar Disorder.
Strategic Outlook and Future Expansion
SmallRig will continue to support the Family Filmmaking Co-Creation Initiative's deep development through promotional campaigns and practical workshops focused on family movie scenarios.
The overall goal of SmallRig's Global Co-creation Initiative is to continuously explore and meet the growing, diverse needs of global creators across different vertical domains. SmallRig is committed to persistently expanding the co-creation model into more imaging sectors, collaborating with industry partners to push the boundaries of imaging and grant global creators broader creative freedom.
